Manitoba weather: Heat, humidity and haze to start week [Video]

It is a hot, humid, and hazy start to the week on Monday in Winnipeg and most of Manitoba.

Most of the province will see either sunshine or a mix of sun and cloud this afternoon.

Temperatures in Winnipeg and the southeast will reach the upper 20s. Look for highs up to 30 C in parts of the southwest including Brandon.

In the northwest, daytime highs will climb to the mid-20s. The northeast will be cooler with highs in the low 20s.

Late this morning, Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) reinstated an air quality alert for some northwest regions near Saskatchewan including Lynn Lake.

Those areas will have to deal with another round of widespread wildfire smoke today.

After smoke in the south on the weekend, conditions will be hazy here today and tonight.

Otherwise, expect a quiet night ahead in the south with light winds and overnight lows …
